SS/RHP JD Channell (TACA Storm; Homeschool, 2026) is coming off a strong offseason, with his fastball now sitting 87–89 mph and continuing to gain velocity. A really good athlete on the mound, he repeats a clean, efficient delivery and uses his arm speed to generate late carry and arm-side run—making his fastball tough for hitters to square up. His curveball (74–76 mph) offers tight spin and swing-and-miss potential, while a deceptive changeup (76–80 mph) rounds out a promising arsenal. With ongoing refinement and added strength, Channell profiles as a high-upside two-way talent, but really like what he offers on the mound.

Body: 5-11, 146-pounds. Good build/frame to add strength/weight.
Hit: RHH. Wide stance with toe tap stride, gains some ground with stride. Decent position to hit. Rotational back foot, body lays back, never gets into front side. Would love to see body be more upright at contact, hitting off firm front side, also with distance between feet after stride, may benefit from linear movement to back foot, should experiment with movement to see how it works. Barrel/hands start in solid position to launch. Length to swing with pull approach. Fair bat/hand speed…would benefit from shorter swing. 67.1 mph bat speed with 5 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 91 max exit velocity, averaged 82.5 mph. 317' max distance. Raw power will develop with added strength. Opportunities for adjustments present to help contact consistency.
Arm: RH. INF-84 mph. Fair arm speed, arm works fine. Will show better with footwork playing thru baseball. Also, long toss program will help with arm speed.
Defense: Avg 1st step, moves well to baseball to get into position to field. Fields baseball deep, can field out front more and play thru baseball with his feet. Solid future.
